• Abstract: We develop and evaluate multilingual scientific documents similarity measurement models in this work. Such models can be used to find related works in different languages, which can help multilingual researchers find and explore papers more efficiently. We propose the first multilingual scientific documents dataset, Open-access Multilingual Scientific Documents (OpenMSD), which has 74M papers in 103 languages and 778M citation pairs. With OpenMSD, we pretrain science-specialized language models, and explore different strategies to derive "related" paper pairs to fine-tune the models, including using a mixture of citation, co-citation, and bibliographic-coupling pairs. To further improve the models' performance for non-English papers, we explore the use of generative language models to enrich the non-English papers with English summaries. This allows us to leverage the models' English capabilities to create better representations for non-English papers. Our best model significantly outperforms strong baselines by 7-16% (in mean average precision).

• Since the Scientific Literature Is Multilingual, Our Models Should Be Too [8.039428445336364]
  We show that the literature is largely multilingual and argue that current models and benchmarks should reflect this linguistic diversity. We provide evidence that text-based models fail to create meaningful representations for non-English papers and highlight the negative user-facing impacts of using English-only models non-discriminately across a multilingual domain.

  We present PolyLM, a multilingual large language model (LLMs) trained on 640 billion (B) tokens, avaliable in two model sizes: 1.7B and 13B. To enhance its multilingual capabilities, we 1) integrate bilingual data into training data; and 2) adopt a curriculum learning strategy that increases the proportion of non-English data from 30% in the first stage to 60% in the final stage during pre-training. Further, we propose a multilingual self-instruct method which automatically generates 132.7K diverse multilingual instructions for model fine-tuning.

  This paper describes our experiments and observations about the role of pre-trained and fine-tuned multilingual embeddings in performing multi-dimensional, multilingual language proficiency classification. Our results indicate that while fine-tuned embeddings are useful for multilingual proficiency modeling, none of the features achieve consistently best performance for all dimensions of language proficiency.
